Bluetooth pairing problem with PC suite

3 replies · 3,688 views · Started 12 November 2005

I have the latest version of PC Suite, IVT Blue BT dongle and latest stack, as per PC Suite instructions. Now my PC, 6680 and Nokia PC suite no longer pair. It gets as far as detecting the phone and putting in a passcosde into the PC, but this does not appear on the phone.

I can connect to the phone using the BT Dongle software, and Nokia Cable with PC Suite, but not PC Suite and BT Dongle.
It used to work, but no longer. I have tried updating drivers etc but with no joy.

Can anybody help?

HI binchie,

I had exactly the same problem as you with the BlueSoleil's bluetooth stack and PC Suite 6.6.18.

Finally after two days of pairing trials, i didn't manage to do so.

I have installed PC Suite 6.6.16 and it works just fine with the exception of not being able to send text messages from the pc.

It seems, as i have read from various forums, that v.6.6.18 has a problem with the BlueSoleil Stack regardless of the version of the BlueSoleil software.

Regards.

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply. After reading your post I changed back to 6.6.16 and had another minor problem.
I found that the IVT BT software automatically enables audio device and this needs to be disabled for PC Suit to work.
I disabled this setting, and you are 100% correct, it works perfectly.

I haven't tried v6.6.18 with the audio disabled in the Bluesoleil, yet, but I can send SMS via PC with 6.6.16, thus there's more issues here.

I may try 6.6.18 tomorrow, although I don't see any real benifits in upgrading with the issues that we have had.

Thanks again

Hi all,
did anybody solve his issues with his N-Gage QD? I'm desperately trying to connect mine to PC Suite via Bluetooth. I have tried all kind of Bluetooth stacks, several versions of PC Suite. The result is always the same, the Bluetooth connection is not stable and PC Suite doesn't recognize the device.
My PC is running XP SP2 with the Microsoft Bluetooth stack.
Any advice?

Thanks a lot in advance
